Two goals in as many minutes have helped struggling Altrincham pick up a much-needed win away to high-flying Bromley.

Lee Sinnott's side started brightly in Kent as Ryan Crowther and George Bowerman both went close for the visitors in the early stages.

Altrincham finally made their initial pressure count as Damian Reeves opening the scoring on 19 minutes when his header found the top corner of Chris Kettings's net.

Bromley hit back before half time when Moses Emmanuel slotted home from close range, after Tim Deasy had saved the forward's initial strike.

However, the Robins restored their advantage within five minutes of the restart as Josh O'Keefe found space to shoot on the edge of the area, before guiding his effort past Kettings.

Bromley's Scottish keeper was beaten again within 82 seconds as Reeves struck his second of the afternoon at Hayes Lane.

The Kent side tried to produce a late rally, with Lee Minshull striking the woodwork before Emmanuel was denied by Deasy.

However, Altrincham managed to withstand late pressure and move seven points clear of Torquay United, who are fourth from bottom.
